Today I know I gave birth to Shiva: Gaia Mother Sofia aka Sofia Hayat

Gaia Mother Sofia traveled to the Kailash temple in Aurangabad to find peace and also to learn more about the gods.

In the quest to find ‘inner peace’ and 'spiritual enlightenment', former Bigg Boss contestant turned nun, Gaia Mother Sofia aka Sofia Hayat, has traveled to the Kailash temple in Aurangabad. The former model has set out on the pilgrimage to find peace and also to learn more about the gods.

Sofia uploaded several photos and videos of her various spiritual encounters on her Instagram account. Going by her long notes, it sure looks like the former actress has had an enlightening experience there.

However, one statement in her long notes had made a few followers raise an eyebrow. Writing about her experience while meditating in front of a Shivling, Sofia says, “Today I know I gave birth to Shiva. Today he came back to me and is inside me.”

She also encouraged several devotees to visit the temple and seek Lord Shiva’s blessings. Sofia had also visited the holy city of Varanaci, where she traveled around the city and befriended a cow, a street vendor and sought blessings from a sadhu.
